Futurama 2018 REVENGEANCE: Noms

[Cmdr_King]

Been too lazy to update the DL list, and playing too many games to NOT want something going on in this space, so... here we are.  And hey, we do have several shiny new stat topics now don't we.

So!  Since this kinda extraneous, and really the idea is to give some newer stuff a chance, we're gonna have a bigger nom pool than usual.  That is:

1. Please nom up to six characters per division from The DL List
AND
2. Please nom up to six characters per division from games not on the ranked list.

Depending on how many people care and respond, we'll decide whether to roll or build later.  Either should happen either Friday or Saturday, depending.

G
Alisa (CS 2)- Auto Life fun in Godlike

Loewe (TitS 1/2)- Nasty slugger (esp in game 2)
Jack (RS)- Overkill damage...just wishes he had the durability to match

X'Torv (CSH)- Auto Life fun in Heavy
Thage (EP)- No Physicals plz
Rita (ToV)- Deadmatch versus Thage...
Scarecrow (WoO)

M
Lita (AI)- The competent Kain variant before competent Kain existed
Rutee (Tales of Destiny)- Perennial favorite
Maya (Persona 2)- Super fun but super flawed
Machias (CS 2)- Evil defensive game for Middle, but spoilable
Carol (WA 5)- Cute draining game
Tolten (LO)- The surprisingly good LO human

L
Chahn (CSH) More quirky high Light (maybe low Middle...) healers
Rubella (CoL)- More quirky high Light healers
Seneca (Suiko: Tactics)- Filler, but probably not the worst votedraw
Millie (SO 1)- Notably improved Rena
Cai- More quirkly high Light pseudo healers
Jeanne (JDA)- Praying for low damage

[DragonKnight Zero]

Last minute noms: Only two of them because rushing to beat deadline

Pamela Ibis (MK)
Worker 8 (FFT)

Chosen for massive spoiling hijinks   

Edit: Two more punies for their opponents' squashing pleasure

Lucia (Lunar: Dragon Song)   Based solely on an LP at the LP archive, she makes a poor impression.  Generic clingy female companion from 1991.  Rosa is very useful in battle, Lucia is not.
Algus (FFT) C1 Boss form.  Punch Art secondary set, Spin Fist and Stigma Magic learned  Woo, damage upgrade to 32 but only on flat ground.  And status curing.  Cower in terror peasants.

[Cmdr_King]

Actually, response has been low, and I wanted to push through a bit further on Bravely Second before making noms myself, so moving launch to probably 36 or so hours from post.

[Cmdr_King]

Alrighty, will start compiling all this in a few hours (also posting some noms of my own).  Barring a surge of pools this'll be a regular size tourney, I'll decide on the merits of rolling once I see the damage.  Figure I'll cut things off ~6 hours from post.

[Dhyerwolf]

CK, is Josette actually a Light under standard interp? 100% Faint + 3 turns of Magic is enough to kill, which definitely doesn't seem like a Light.

[SnowFire]

I'd be fine with completely disrespecting SC's Faint game since it's immuned by absolutely everything relevant by the time she joins.  There's like 2 enemies in the final dungeon who are still Faint vulnerable and they suck. (Although, in fairness, some of them are adds on one of the final battles.)

EDIT: Also, per Discord, Delphox is probably a Heavy.

[Dhyerwolf]

Needless to say, I strongly support that!

[Random Consonant]

Seems borderline L/M if you ask me just going by the stat topic (very slightly below average speed, not far from being 2HKO'd by average, not far from missing the kill against average durability) and I'm never sure how much faith I personally want to put in those damage numbers given the assumptions lined out there but probably worth erring on the side of caution regardless.  Unless I'm forgetting that Faint can be refreshed in which case never mind that's nowhere near Light.

Of course, since it's Josette, people will probably end up disrespecting that on principle.
